We set the compat_elf_hwcap bits unconditionally on arm64 to include the VFP and NEON support. However, the FP/SIMD unit is optional on Arm v8 and thus could be missing. We already handle this properly in the kernel, but still advertise to the COMPAT applications that the VFP is available. Fix this to make sure we only advertise when we really have them.

Linux kernel ============ There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at: https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
